Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the dramatic events that led to the downfall of Lobengula, the last king of the Matabele, in the late 19th century. It delves into the history of the Matabele people, tracing their origins to the Zulu nation under the rule of Chaka, and their subsequent exodus under the leadership of Moselikatsi. The author vividly recounts the Matabele's interactions with both the Boers and the British, highlighting their military prowess and their brutal practices of extermination and conquest. The narrative culminates in the Matabele War of 1893, a conflict that resulted in the crushing of the Matabele military power and the opening up of Matabeliland to British colonization. The book provides a fascinating account of a pivotal moment in Southern African history, illuminating the complex dynamics of power, colonialism, and the struggle for survival between indigenous peoples and European expansion.
